Abstract
According to certain embodiments, a method by a wireless device is provided for mapping of application data packets onto bearers. The method includes associating at least one tag value with a bearer upon establishment of the bearer. A tag is attached to a packet when passing the packet to a lower layer. The packet is mapped onto the bearer, and a path to transmit the packet is selected.
Claims24
A method for mapping of application data packets onto bearers, comprising:
- upon establishment of a bearer, associating at least one tag value with the bearer;
- attaching a tag to a packet when passing the packet to a lower layer;
- mapping the packet onto the bearer;
- and
- selecting which path to transmit the packet.
A method for QoS differentiation of data packets using autonomous transmission mode, comprising:
- receiving a packet from a remote UE, the packet comprising a Scheduling Assignment;
- determining priority of data sent by the remote UE from the Scheduling Assignment;
- and
- ensuring one or more QoS parameters for the data based on the determined priority.
A UE comprising a processor and an interface, the processor and the interface coupled to one another, wherein the processor and interface are configured to:
- upon establishment of a bearer, associate at least one tag value with the bearer;
- attach a tag to a packet when passing the packet to a lower layer;
- map the packet onto the bearer;
- and
- select a path to transmit the packet.
A network node comprising a processor and an interface, the processor and the interface coupled to one another, wherein the processor and interface are configured to:
- receive a packet from a remote UE, the packet comprising a Scheduling Assignment;
- determine priority of data sent by the remote UE from the Scheduling Assignment;
- and
- ensure one or more QoS parameters for the data based on the determined priority.

A method for QoS differentiation of data packets using eNB-scheduled transmission mode, comprising:
- receiving information from a UE, the information associated with the logical channel or logical channel group to which the UE has mapped one or more tags associated with the packet to be transmitted by the UE;
- and
- optimizing scheduling for the UE to transmit the packet based on the information received from the UE.
A network node comprising a processor and an interface coupled to one another, wherein the processor and interface are configured to:
- receive information from a UE, the information associated with the logical channel or logical channel group to which the UE has mapped one or more tags associated with the packet to be transmitted by the UE;
- and
- optimize scheduling for the UE to transmit the packet based on the information received from the UE.
